NEW YORK, Oct. 24 (UPI) -- New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress has received $45,000 in NFL fines for his actions in last Sunday's contest against the San Francisco 49ers.
The league Friday fined the controversial wideout $20,000 for remarks made to head linesman Phil McKinnely after the official called him for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty in the second quarter, and $20,000 for inappropriate post-game comments on the officiating.
